    From the short video, does not seem to be dying from lack of fuel? Maybe video is deceiving.

    As a side note, you need a deeper test barrel for that motor. The pump is up much higher than your water level, and it is not self priming. It wont pump like that.

    What is the compression?

    I assume you checked spark? Will it jump a 1/4" gap on a tester? Have you gone over ignition? Checked coils, dressed points, etc…?
